About: I adopted two wonderful dogs in 2017. I rescued them from a kill shelter in Southern California. Both have rabies shots and flea/tick medication. Spouse says I can't get another pet, so I'll pet sit others instead! I love to be around other dogs and puppies! I would treat your pet(s) as my own. I live in a pet friendly area in Downtown Hartford near the river and Connecticut Science Center. I truly love animals. My friends, family, and even some neighbors have relied on me to take care of their fur babies when they've been away. I recently stopped working a temp job and am available all day. My spouse works half the week but there are usually two people in the household so your pet will be well taken care of. There is an area called Constitution Plaza with multiple grassy areas for dogs to stretch their legs. There's also a long river walk with plenty of grass and play areas, so it's perfect for some outside playtime early in the mornings, or maybe when the sun starts going down so as to not overheat them mid-day.

“Wendy was a lifesaver. Extremely quick to respond and she & her family took the best care of our pup on Christmas Day. Could not recommend more highly. Thank you!”

“Jessi is absolutely fabulous. She has great experience with dogs who don’t always fit the mold which I love. She is dependable, trustworthy and best of all beyond caring about the welfare of the dog. She dog sits for me. I have a reactive guy. She has a natural way with all the dogs who are lucky enough to spend time with her. She as well cherishes her time with them so it is a true win win situation!”

Jillian is very conscientious and lets me know right away if there are any changes in behavior when I'm away. I highly recommend Jillian for any and all of your pet care needs!”

“Bri was so kind and gentle with my German shepherd Sasha. She asked all the proper questions showing me she truly cared for the best when it came to my girl. Bri took photos and even let me FaceTime her when she would babysit Sasha. Bri has such amazing patience and I greatly appreciate her communication and commitment. Anyone who has Bri work for them is going to get the best and most loving animal lover ever! Thanks Bri! Sasha and I adore you!”

About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and love them all. We have had our current dog for almost 3 years and he loves others. I look forward to meeting your pup!

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was a child. As an adult I have had both a diabetic dog who required insulin injections and a dog with other medical conditions that required daily medication, so I am able to care for sick or older pets too. I currently have a dog who is almost 5 that I rescued when he was 12 weeks old who loves other dogs. I work from home so we take lots of walks during the day. I work from home, so I am available for both daycare and overnight care in my home. My dog loves to go on walks, so we do at least 5 walks a day. I am available to care for your dog in my home. I do have a very friendly 27lb dog who loves other dogs and will keep your furbaby company.

“Rumi is a great pet parent. She loves animals. She is very kind and loving. She will be great dog sitter or walker. I would highly recommend her.”

“Hello- Christina is the most genuine person you'll ever meet. She always has a smile on her face. Her positive disposition attracts people and furry friends alike. She's a seasoned pet owner. Her best furry friend just recently passed away from old age. Although his passing was felt by family and friend alike, we are all certain that he had the best life and was the luckiest little guy to have Christina as his mom. She gave him all the best care and affection a pup could receive. She's gentle, loyal, and kind. Her two kittens are the light of her life, and they too are dotted on and loved beyond words. Having Christina in your team would be a blessing, not only for your company but for the pets that would be so lucky as to be taken care of by her.”
